+CMHN Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Hi all, I was wondering what kind of demand there may be for ammo boxes here? I have the opportunity to buy a couple pallets of boxes form a local military base, legally, and was wondering if anybody would be interested in them. I can get the following: 11X4X7 witch are the 7.62mm ammo boxes. 13X5.5X14 witch are the 25mm ammo boxes. 12X6X7 witch are the 50cal ammo boxes. Please don't think I am trying to sell anything in this post, I was just wondering if there was a demand for them and I will post a formal for sale post in the garage sale if I do get these items. If this post is out of line, and doesnt belong here please forgive me, but I know that the people here that hide caches like ammo boxes and I thought I would help out, while making some extra money of coarse.

+Minimike2 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Shipping costs are as high, or higher, than the ammo can. Quote Link to comment
+paleolith Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 You'd be better off posting in a local forum. As mentioned, shipping costs are high, and if you search you can find vendors supplying them for around $6-$8 including shipping. But if you find local cachers who are interested, getting a pallet can be a great deal. Edward Quote Link to comment

+CMHN Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) That's just it, I'm able to get the boxes by the pallet load. At a very reasonable price. Way below what I see them selling for retail. I will be advertising them locally, on ebay, and other venues. I was just wondering if anybody here would be interested in them. Like I said, I'm not trying to sell any yet, just seeing if anybody is interested before I buy some. Edited December 14, 2009 by CMHN Quote Link to comment

If there is a local geocaching org in your area contact them and see if there is interest. Also you'd be better off posting this in the mid Atlantic forums where you are more likely to reach local geocachers. Quote Link to comment
